So is the Barstool podcast where women refer to other women as "holes" real. I see zero evidence in reality to disbelieve it.

quite a muted chapo imo, but trueanon made up for it. enjoying the ongoing subplot of liz getting more overtly irritated at brace loving around when she's trying to do good work exposing the satanics.

new rev left radio is pretty interesting. its an interview with harry haywood's daughter. she's a critic of marxism, but the insights into haywood's life are great. haywood's parents were former slaves, and at one point his father blew a klansman's head off with a shotgun

Been listening to audiobooks at work to broaden my mind and annoy my supervisor. I find that a lot of the big lefty comment podcasts often cover the same things so it often feels a bit redundant. There's a couple of podcasts that cover this niche Audible Anarchist https://audibleanarchism.podbean.com/ And Resonance https://www.podbean.com/podcast-detail/7gjc7-4f1fb/Resonance-An-Anarchist-Audio-Distro-Podcast

Also the loving word "library" is mentioned once on the end, the whole focus is the Clinton Foundation putting books in laundromats because the poors love spending time there. Browsing through the thread and laughing hard at this old post after Biden's phonograph meltdown last week

mila kunis posted:"leftcoms", or left communists, are ostensible communists who have such beautiful souls that they simply cannot engage with trade unions (reactionary) or do electoral work (bourgeoise) or work with the peasantry (backwards) or impose the dictatorship of the proletariat through the vehicle of a worker's state (authoritarian) or basically do anything but explain at length why every instance of actually-existing socialism is, actually, doing it wrong, and in reality an example of state capitalism/bureaucratic collectivism/degeneration/asiatic despotism. lenin wrote a long pamphlet on this topic called "left-wing communism, an infantile disorder". trotsky headed the "left opposition" in the ussr before he was exiled

Halloween Jack posted:Doesn't this apply equally well to tankies? All forms of on-the-ground activism are compromises with the neoliberal state, and so on. (I forget all the jargon they use to explain why food pantries and brake light clinics are evil.) And the "actually existing socialism" they do support is just LOL. you'll have to be more specific. tankie is used by liberal morons to describe a range of people from anyone slightly to the left of bernie sanders to people who don't want to send the tanks in to venezuela, to people who aren't even that left wing but oppose american foreign policy in general. the people who absolutely refuse to engage with electoral politics, unionism, community activism or whatever are probably leftcoms

The meaning has been all over the place, but the best definition these days is "habitual apologist for crimes and oppression done by governments that nominally oppose the west"

We're back to matter of the morally superior position that costs me nothing but the possibility of looking ridiculous online. yeah it's a difficult problem to solve. like personally i think backing/organizing for sanders is a good idea just on the basis that he's the least likely to invade venezuela or keep bombing yemen, and also because repeated victory of """socialists""" in american politics will make it easier to form an actual worker's party down the line, but i could definitely be persuaded otherwise by the right argument. i think a lot of the difference comes down to how you educate people about what you're doing and what you say your long-term gameplan is - like, sanders could have supported the exact same short-term domestic policies but NOT called maduro an evil tyrant, for instance
